Chef James visits
year 3
 On
Thursday 14th January, Year 3 had a visit from
Chef James. He came to school and spent the morning
with Year 3. They had lots of fun! They learned
about healthy eating, the different tastes and
about using all our senses to taste food properly.
Chef James played lots of games using food and
the Year 3 children also made some delicious pasta
called. 'Pasta Primavera'. All of the children
were able to take a dish of this pasta home.
Here is the recipe:

450g penne pasta
200g broccoli- small florets
175g asparagus- into lozenges(diamond shapes)
115g mange tout- thin strips
100g carrots - matchsticks(julienne)
75g courgette - quadrant shaped slices
75g celery - thin sliced in crescent shape
1 clove garlic
200g crème fraiche
1 tbs grain mustard
Method

into small or thin pieces, (as listed above) so
as when flash fried will cook evenly.

water.
3. In a frying pan, put a little olive oil, and
flash fry the vegetables with the garlic. Ensure
you do not overcook the vegetables, keep a little
